Correlation Between Different Parameters of Acute Myocardial Infarction and Obesity.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveTo study if obesity had a detrimental effect on troponin after acute coronary syndrome. We investigated the effects of the body mass index (BMI) in post-myocardial infarction (MI) patients, and see the difference in troponin levels and other parameters between normal and overweight patients. METHODOLOGY: A retrospective cohort study was conducted. Data were extracted from the electronic medical files of patients hospitalized due to acute ST-elevation MI to examine the association between BMI and MI. Sixty-one patients were categorized into normal BMI category, overweight, and obese/morbid obesity groups using the baseline measurements, to assess the independent factors associated with a patient with a high BMI who had a MI.
resultsIn total, 61 post-myocardial infarction patients with a mean age of 56.9 ± 11.2 years were included in the study. The average BMI was 28.5 ± 6.5 kg/m
conclusionsIn this pilot study, the group with a high BMI had a statistically significant lower troponin level and higher mean heart rate. Such data need to be considered when assessing a patient's risk. In addition, obese persons with a MI had a higher left ventricle mass.
